Figure Study – Lesson One
The debut
7'' of Figure Study, a contemporary band from New York. Figure Study is the
Manhattan duo of Nathan Antolik and April Chalpara, who share writing and
production duties, while April handles the vocals. They began the project in
2009, after meeting one another through the Wierd Records weekly party, where
they would play their first concert soon after. For their debut single ''Lesson
One'' they utilized small, simple analog synthesizer set up of all vintage
Roland analog synths and drum machines. Figure Study's sound includes
influences from early minimal synth music such as Kirlian Camera, Nine Circles,
and The Actor. All songs have been mastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy
Studios in Berkeley. Each 7'' is housed in a specially designed jacket by N.
Antolik and includes a postcard-sized insert of all lyrics.
